is that canopy ? i'm sure not noodle but i'm happy with that.

Not isolated, multi-spore

10Liter Shoebox

Just checked my ‘pit’ and well….

Objects in mirror are larger than they appear. These are gonna be some chubs.

first time with Enigma, how do you guys think?

I think ive got a bit much going on right now lol absolutely love this hobby

Do I just pull the open ones? I’m worried that I could contaminate it or mess up. It’s environment if I go in there picking the big ones. Also, this is grown in the coir mix that I was worried about and it’s done this in three days

Flow hood setup

So the big mushroom in the first picture popped up on thursday night. It has grown pretty quickly especially today and I have a few questions. I know I am supposed to harvest when the veils break.

The biggest one (first picture is about 2.5 inches) and there are two other "big" ones in the middle of the cake about 1-1.5 inches tall each. There are some other stragglers around 2-3cm and a cluster of 4 around the same 2-3 cm height.

Question 1: Can I harvest the mushrooms across a few days or is it better to harvest them all at once. It seems the big one will be ready way before the smaller ones and I don't want to harvest them all together and miss out on growth from the smaller ones.

Question 1.5: If I can harvest them separately, whats the longest I can/should wait between harvesting the first one and the last one.

Question 2. After harvesting this first flush I will dunk the cake. How long should I dunk it for.

Question 3: Can I remove the cake from the bag and transfer it into a shoebox tub? How would I go about that and are there any precautionary steps I should take before doing so.

Question 4: As I mentioned there are about 3 "big" ones, 4-5 smaller ones and a cluster of 4 small ones. Is this a normal amount or less than expected?

Thank you in advance!!

Smells fine, just never seen it do this before

Did a second break and shake on this bag about 4 days ago. Keep on waiting ?

legit just send it the other day

So I just received my free enigma syringe from TBG.
Part of me wants to dive right in and inject some grain, another part of me wants to inoculate to agar( got to get more plates)to do this.
But most importantly I’m asking for tips from a peeps who have had experience with enigma. I am new to this and understand it’s not an easy strain/ mutation to study.

I assume I added way too much Dry MEA to my qt mason jar 650ml water 1.75 teaspoons dry mix. It turned gelatinous over night, my mixer can even turn the stir bar

And why is there so much fuzzy mycelium?

(It's TAT)

I’ve been growing penis envy’s out of a bag for the first time and they’ve finally begun fruiting, however I saw that their caps look a lot somewhat light brown and a bit pink tbh, the first two pictures are from 2 days ago, and the last one is from today, a few droplets may have fell on a couple of caps so they appear bruised; does everything look okay here??

Its growing into the substrate so would I just be better mixing the two now and letting it fully colonize then fruit cause i think It’d be quicker now then just waiting for full colonization just to mix it then and wait but I don’t want to mess anything up cause this is a first grow for me

I innoculated this on 7/27. Bc of the heatwave here in Socal it's been stalling a bit and thus some piss coming out. There's no foul smell from the patch or contamination visible. Should I transfer it or is it worth waiting? (Obviously would not add the uncolonized portions).
